Stalgast Sanelli 25.5 cm Professional Cutting Knife

A 25.5 cm cutting knife from the Stalgast Sanelli range delivers controlled slicing through meats, vegetables and baked goods. The blade's length allows a single draw to separate portions without sawing, while its rigidity keeps the edge aligned for consistent thickness and minimal waste.

The knife relies on a hardened steel blade that holds its sharpness through repeated use. A Rockwell hardness of 54-56HRC balances edge retention with the ability to be honed back to a fine point, reducing the frequency of professional sharpening. The blade is ground to a taper that reduces drag, so each cut requires less force and the operator's hand tires more slowly.

An ergonomic handle of two contrasting plastics moulds to the grip, preventing slippage when the knife is wet or greasy. The dual-material construction also absorbs vibration, which further reduces hand fatigue during long service. The handle's shape guides the fingers into a pinch grip, giving the user precise control over blade angle and pressure.

The 255 mm blade length suits tasks that require reach without bulk: trimming large joints, portioning sheet cakes or slicing dense root vegetables. The knife's single-piece construction, from tip to tang, ensures the blade does not loosen or wobble under load.

Cleaning follows from the materials: the stainless blade resists corrosion and can be washed in commercial dishwashers, while the plastic handle withstands the high temperatures and detergents used in professional cleaning cycles. After washing, the knife should be dried immediately to prevent water spots on the blade and to maintain the handle's non-slip surface.
